As I see it, MidwayUSA has jumped on the bandwagon as well.
And yes, Allen, if memory serves me correctly, Ronnie Barrett's organization did poop on California's parade

Now if we can get the Hornadys and Winchesters of the world to stop selling ammunition to those states we can really get there attention.

Its good to see that the gun industry stand up to the states that infringe on the 2nd amendment.
It's extremely impressive to see these companies stand up for the constitution. I do however, believe we need to be careful in regards to where we focus are anger. We must keep in mind that the tyrants are the decision makers and not the police. I do find the stance these companies are taking to be truly patriotic, and I can only hope other companies will follow. With this, I can only hope our government will understand that law enforcement needs these weapons, just as do our citizens. The men capable of and wanting to restrict our rights, in total disregard for the constitution, are employed by the state and federal governments. However we do not need to leave our local governments defenseless as they are not part of the problem. I cannot speak for all of law enforcement however the overwhelming majority of peace officers I work with and know share our same values. This is coming from a LEO in south Georgia so that is to be expected, however I believe most law enforcement supports the second amendment as a right and not a privilege. LEO's are aware more than anyone, of who breaks the law and the weapons that are used, therefore common sense is applied.

There is a website where you can fill out some information and it will mass e-mail other companies to do the same and boycott states and agencies that support such bills.
